This week on The SNL Hall of Fame Water Cooler, jD is joined by Joe Gannon and Shari Fesko to break down Monday’s episode, which spotlighted the nomination of legendary SNL short film creator Tom Schiller. They reflect on the fascinating conversation with special guest Brad Seith of the Not Ready for Prime Time Project, who brought his deep knowledge and passion for Schiller’s work to the table.

The crew discusses Schiller’s pivotal contributions to SNL’s early DNA, his uncanny eye for talent, and his unique ability to blur the lines between comedy and pathos. Joe, Shari, and jD also explore comparisons to other SNL Hall of Fame inductees and share their favorite Schiller moments that helped shape the show’s identity.

Tune in as we gather ’round the water cooler to celebrate the singular artistry of Tom Schiller—and decide whether he has earned his rightful place among the SNL greats.
